The Carteret County News-Times recently published this anonymous letter to the editor. I’m unsure of it’s validity because of the sheer stupidity on display. I only share it with you now because we could all use a bit of humor every now and then.

“Proud to be a Democrat”

I hate to say I told you so, but well, I told you so. Not YOU, personally, probably, unless you happen to be the person-in-denial I told, but well, you get my drift. The point is, I DID say it was coming and several deniers protested the thought that *gasp* Obama was going to even attempt a gun grab.

Damn. I hate it when I’m right. And not even a heartfelt apology from said deniers will make that sorrow dissipate. It’s almost too late, you see.

“The president is going to act,” said Biden, giving some comments to the press before a meeting with victims of gun violence. “There are executives orders, there’s executive action that can be taken. We haven’t decided what that is yet. But we’re compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action that we believe is required.”

Biden said that this is a moral issue and that “it’s critically important that we act.”

Biden talked also about taking responsible action. “As the president said, if you’re actions result in only saving one life, they’re worth taking. But I’m convinced we can affect the well-being of millions of americans and take thousands of people out of harm’s way if we act responsibly.”

Obama is coming for your guns. Incrementally of course, but don’t be like my friend living in Egypt on the river with his head buried in the desert. It’s time to realize Obama is taking aim at the Second Amendment, along with Eric (We must brainwash people against guns) Holder, Senator Feinstien, the ATF and Janet (I-shoulda-been-a-man with a gun-ban) Napolitano.

Just two days prior, the U.S. Supreme Court revived hope – long thought dead – that Obamacare, the president’s signature achievement, might yet be ruled unconstitutional. The High Court shocked the legal community by opening its new term with an order giving the Obama Justice Department just 30 days to respond to Liberty Counsel’s petition for rehearing. Liberty Counsel filed the petition on behalf of Liberty University and two private individuals.

An appeals court in Richmond, Va., ruled that the Anti-Injunction Act, or AIA, barred the court from addressing the merits in Liberty Univ., Inc. v. Geithner, which challenged the individual mandate (Section 1501) and the employer insurance mandate (Section 1513) of Obamacare.

In addition to the constitutional arguments that Congress lacked authority to pass the law, the suit also raised the Free Exercise of religion claim because of the forced taxpayer funding of abortion.
